Summary

This video provides a step-by-step guide on planting and harvesting cesin, offering practical insights from a seasoned expert. The process includes creating a planting bed, sowing seeds directly into the soil without prior germination, and maintaining growth with regular watering and fertilization. As the cesin plants mature, the use of leaf fertilizers speeds up their growth, with harvesting typically happening around 15 days after planting. The expert also shares tips for harvesting and handling the cesin before sale, including ideal timing and preparation to ensure freshness. The video wraps up with pricing information and advice on selecting quality seeds.

Takeaways

• 😀 Start by creating a siringan (trench or row) to prepare the soil for planting.
• 😀 The soil is dug and compacted before planting the seeds directly into the prepared ground.
• 😀 Seeds are planted one at a time directly into the soil without pre-germinating them in small pots or containers.
• 😀 The planting method ensures that seeds grow immediately into mature plants, bypassing the germination stage.
• 😀 Regular maintenance includes spraying the plants with foliar fertilizer 2-3 times a day to promote growth.
• 😀 Watering the plants regularly is crucial for healthy development, with watering done using either a sprayer or tank.
• 😀 The plants typically show visible growth after 5 days, but they haven't been fertilized yet at that point.
• 😀 After around 15 days, the plants should be sufficiently grown and ready for harvesting, but still require regular care.
• 😀 Harvesting should be done in the late afternoon (around 5:00 PM) to avoid damaging the plants with direct sunlight.
• 😀 After harvesting, the plants should be watered again to keep them fresh before selling, ensuring they are in optimal condition.
• 😀 The price of the harvested product is approximately 5,000 IDR per kilogram, though prices can vary depending on the market conditions.

Q & A

What is the first step in planting cesin?

The first step is to create a trench or channel ('silingan'), then the ground is plowed and leveled ('gampar') before planting.

How is the cesin seed planted?

The cesin seed is planted directly into the prepared soil, one seed at a time, without pre-germination ('cemai') or prior soaking.

How long does it take for the cesin plant to show signs of growth?

It takes about 5 days for the cesin plant to show visible growth.

Is fertilization necessary for cesin plants?

Yes, fertilization is essential, and the plant should be fertilized with leaf fertilizer ('pupuk daun') to support its growth.

How often should the cesin plants be watered or fertilized?

The cesin plants should be sprayed with leaf fertilizer two to three times a day and watered regularly using either a watering can or sprayer.

How long does it take for cesin plants to reach maturity?

The cesin plants take about 15 days to grow long enough, and in about a week, they will be ready for harvesting.

What is the ideal time to harvest cesin?

Cesin should be harvested around 5:00 PM or in the evening when sunlight is less intense, to prevent the stems from breaking or becoming damaged.

How should cesin be handled after harvesting?

After harvesting, cesin should be carefully bound together and watered with clean water to ensure it remains fresh before selling.

What is the price range for cesin?

The price of cesin is around 5,000 IDR per kilogram, though the price can vary depending on the market.
